Forums Rules

Although members of the Gladiator Security Forums (henceforth referred to as "Forums") are encouraged to choose an online handle (user ID), please remember that you are still accountable for your own behavior in our Forums. Please be aware that our Forums are open to the general public, which includes anyone with Internet access. We may revoke an individual's Forums membership or block their e-mail addresses for violations of the Forums rules or the Law. These rules shall also apply to all e-mail communications related to Gladiator Security Forums.

General

§1
Keep in mind that people of different languages, backgrounds, races, religions, etc will be posting here. Treat others with respect and sensitivity. Abusive, racist, harassing, or threatening behavior will not be tolerated. Be kind to newbies and help them out. Remember you were a newbie once and appreciated advice and answering of simple questions.

§2
Transmitting through our site any information, data, graphics, files, text, software, or any other material that are or may be considered to be unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, vulgar, pornographic, obscene, hateful, racially, or ethnically or otherwise objectionable, is prohibited. In addition, you agree not to post any links to -- not allowed here -- sites and sites with download possibilities from malware (viruses, Trojans, worms, backdoors, etc.).

Forums Postings

§3
Please take the time to consider the potential effects of your posts before you submit them. Forums postings are not private or confidential. Please do not post material that is protected by copyright, unless you are the copyright holder or have the author's permission.

§4 We ask that individuals refrain from commercial posts in the forums. This is defined as a post where someone with an interest in a company, business, or product promotes a product or service and provides a link, email address, or phone number for the purpose of selling the product or service. Members are welcome to recommend products or services in which they have no financial interest.

§5
We do not screen messages before they appear in our Forums. Please do not post messages which contain personal attacks. We want our conversations to be interesting and enjoyable. There is a difference between disagreeing with an idea and attacking a person. Please respect that difference. We reserve the right to move or to remove posts that are abusive, disruptive, or out-of-context. Please refrain from spamming (posting lots of text unrelated to a discussion to the Forums).

§6
We do not give any personal nor private support via email, PM or IM because our team wants to prevent to get any spam. Please use our forums to tell us about your problems, hint, ideas and suggestions.

§7
People helping will be the crew of this board and/or a hand picked few designated by the yellow sign of "Security Expert". Do not listen to the advice of others, unless it has been okayed by earlier mentioned personnel.

§8
Postings with unsolicited advertisements and links to Blogs will be deleted. Repeat posters will be banned. Pretty simple and straight forward. If you have any questions about what is considered an advertisement please PM a Mod or Admin.

§9 Members need more than 10 postings before they can use the PM system of Gladiator-Security Forums.
